What motivated Shaun to watch the show?

As Shaun describes it, Nina was away on a film project for three months, so he decided that the show was the only way to be with her without being with her. He said“Oh, this will be cool. I’ll start the show. I’ll see her without seeing her.” Well, it was probably a great plan, and Shaun White binged all eight seasons in one go.
